We’ve Made Installation Safer
Through quick yet careful installations, we can help you get essential services while protecting the health of DISH customers and employees.
Requests for DISH Customers
- If anyone in your home has a fever, a known illness, or flu-like symptoms, please reschedule your installation as soon as possible. To do so, click “Reschedule” under My Appointments or call 1-800-333-3474.
- If someone in your home becomes ill the day of the visit, and you don’t have time to notify us by phone, please notify the technician as soon as they arrive.
- Please leave a safe social distance of 6 feet between you and your installer at all times.
Commitments from DISH
- Your technician will call one or two days before your appointment to confirm their health and yours.
- If your installer develops a fever, a known illness, or flu-like symptoms, we will reschedule your installation with another technician as soon as possible.
- Technicians will reduce the time they spend in your home by working quickly yet carefully.
- Installers will avoid shaking hands with customers and maintain 6 feet of social distance from others.
- Installers will wear gloves throughout the visit and shoe covers inside the home. They’ll also sanitize any surfaces they touch.
- Customers will have the option to verbally agree to their contract instead of signing it on the installer’s tablet.
- Technicians have permission to end appointments early if anyone shows contagious symptoms during their visit.
Ongoing CDC Recommendations for DISH Customers and Installers

- Clean frequently touched surfaces.
More Changes to Support the DISH Community
To inform and entertain DISH customers, help employees stay financially stable, and support the entire nation through this emergency, DISH has
- continued offering packages and installations to new DISH customers;
- checked in with local news stations to make sure they stay available; and
- donated a portion of our network to T-Mobile to support customers without home internet.
And to make sure that the rest of the DISH community stays safe, DISH has also
- transitioned many employees to work from home, protecting location-dependent employees;
- cut employee travel to essential trips only;
- used more videoconferencing to communicate with business partners and fulfill orders;
- instituted a thorough illness-reporting plan;
- adjusted attendance policies to protect employees who become ill; and
- increased cleaning frequency to keep our workplaces sanitized and safe.

Ways to Watch DISH
Cut the clutter in your home and let the whole family watch TV where they want. With DISH, you can sign in to our app on game consoles, smart TVs, and practically any kind of media device to access all your channels and recordings from any room.
The Hopper 3 Solves Recording Conflicts
While everyone’s home together, DISH makes it super convenient to record everything you want to watch. The Smart HD DVR included with every plan records 2 shows at a time—but the Hopper 3 records up to 16 at once for just $5/mo. more. That means after the world returns to normal, you’ll have even more space for sports and fall TV.
Internet and TV for Rural Customers
Rural communities had a hard time getting essential services even before the global pandemic. But DISH cares about rural customers, and so do its internet partners offering satellite internet in the continental US. Service is still available to you.
